Asana has a checklist-looking widget among its other widgets on the dashboard when users start out with a tool. The 5-step checlist takes users to specific parts of the tool and helps them customize their dashboard. When the checklist is completed, users are prompted with a congratulations message and rainbow patterns.

Why it’s great:

‍

✅ Blends in the widgets screen - The checklist widget fits right in the dashboard among other widgets and thus it doesn’t get too intrusive and is available for when the user actually wants to do the checklist onboarding.

✅ Short and comprehensive - The checklist consists of only 5 steps so it is quite short, easy for users to complete, and comprehensive enough to show users the main functions.

✅ Welcoming and marks a milestone - The congratulations message and the fun little rainbows make Asana’s first in-app onboarding welcoming and give off a chill feel. The users get to experience their first success with the tool and feel accomplished with their goals.
